Sacred Mothers & Goddesses

Mind Body & Soul Ezine Card Deck Review: Sacred Mothers & Goddesses by Claudia Olivos, Boxed set of 40 Oracle Cards and Guidebook, published by Blue Angel £17.99

We look back at the earliest deities and we find a resurgence of interest in the sacred feminine to redress the imbalance of power that has dominated our world. The essence of the divine feminine is ready to be amplified! 

 

Biographical information about the author/artist is included in the guidebook, with information on how to use the cards, to initiate, bless the cards with a provided prayer for this purpose. The cards can be read for self or others and are ideal for beginners and experienced card readers. There are 35 goddess cards, 4 priestess cards and one sacred feminine card. An introduction to each energy is provided with a channelled message, when to call on that energy, along with activities and rituals. Information on how to create sacred space and how to create an altar. A daily card can be drawn with the words "I am the one who...." There is information on using the cards in a group setting, a Circle Oracle Card Ritual, how to Set up a Circle, Circle Rituals, using the cards in a Circle, Closing the Circle etc. Each card has an image, a number, a title and subtitle, and a message. Claudia Olivos is a surrealist and abstract painter. 

The images are of women with a youthful quality so I recommend this deck for the young female enquirer and/or reader.
